SDL TMS 11.4 | CRQ-8158 | Word counting for Asian languages

Symptoms:
After installing SDL TMS 11.4, word counting for jobs using Asian source languages changed, no longer using the previous character counting mechanism, but the new word-based tokenization.

Explanation:
This issue was introduced in SDL TMS 11.4 as a result of sharing new libraries with SDL Trados Studio, where the new word counting methodology was implemented.

Resolution:
The previous method of character counting for Asian source languages has been restored.

SDL-hosted customers should contact SDL Support to arrange for this hotfix to be deployed.
